this week. 1t is understood that
some members of the commit

with move that is being talked of by

steps looking to the accomplishment OF
that scheme.
The politicians here from Virginia
are very much pleased with the plat

convention at Roanoke and speak very
confident of the success of the party
this fall, but favor a rigid aud active
canvass. United States Senator kennl,
OF West Virginia, who has been spend

fers to be assigned to the stump IN

sue of greenbacks, and reform of the
tariff. Why do the Democrats in Con-
gress lend Cleveland a hollow, halt
hearted support?
l. Because they think it necessary to
hold the party together
2. They neither like him nor his meth
obs.
Bat there is stronger reason with the
congressman still. Each one perhaps
has gotten some appointment from Gleve-
land for friend, or is trying TO do so.
Therefore they do not wish TO antagon-
ize him personally. But it is clear to
most of tleg what Henry Watterson says
openly: "That Cleveland is fast wreck
ing the Democratic party, and that the
only chance for the Democracy is to
leave hun TO founder along as best he
may, to disavow him and his acts"
Cleveland wants another term, and is
bidding for southern support, bat il he
wished to ALLEVIATE his few southern
friends, he coald not have chosen better
plan than the touch of social equality
contained in the extract we give above.
Mrs. Cleveland may dine or associate
with whom she pleases, but Mrs. Cleve-
lands husband is not the man for the
south to support in national conven-
ton.

Against 'sociaI Equnliry'' in the Presiden-

Against social Equality in the Presiden-

Moody Monitor.
The following is what late Press dis
patch had to say in regard to social equal
ity at the White House:
"The Presidents reception to the dip
lomatic corps was brilliant. Those pres
eut were: The President and Mrs. Carter,
the Haytien Minister AMI Mrs. Cleveland,
the Argentine Minister and Mrs. Gatis,
the Portuguese Minister and Mrs. Folsom,
etc ~
Ye gods! Is not this enough to make
George Washington and Andrew Jackson
turn in their collins and groan? The
wife of one CT their Democratic success
sors carried out to dinner on the arm of g
cual-blsch negro in TIL White Honse, too !.
Hsyti is a negro republic, and its Binis-
ter is as black as Erebus or the ace of
spades. When Grant admitted Fred
Douglas to his table, g social row was
raised, but he was K Republican President,
of Wnom nothing better could have been
expected; besides, Fred Douglas had made
himself respected Gy mis- talents, and was
al OctCroon. But Mrs. Cleveland, wife
of q Democratic President, by her hus-
bands order or consent, promenades in
public Oh the arm of Q negro, and nothing
il said about it. What would a southern
gentleman have done had he Glanced to
have been present st this dinner? 10 the
long list Of guests we do not recognize 8
single southern man or woman. Mr..
Lamar, q member of the cabinet, is con-
spicuously absent. Not so the Secretary
~ SEota II Z Ravar5
We think An American negro better by
odds than a Voodoo-worshlping blSck
from Hayti; and if Cleveland wished to
inausurate social equality, ne should have
begun at home. Matthews, the negro
whom he has so persistentIy forced upon
the Republican Senate for Registrar of
the District of Columbia, and whom they
as often rejected, is respectable darkey,
and would have made better subject to
begin with.
There is no use trying to disguise the
fact farther: The rabid abolitionists of
the north, the bankers and syndicstes,
the 'bloated bondholders" of the eastern
cities have the very sort of man they want
ii the presidential chair. Republican
oH,cials still hold their places and defy
hEn to turn them out without violating
